This last Thursday, February 12, 2009, we recorded a new episode of the Green Ronin Podcast. Episode 8: 2009 Ahoy! Features company president Chris Pramas, business manager Nicole Lindroos, and webmaster Evan Sass chatting around the table where we normally game on Thursday nights. Tune in to...

I know Pramas usually posts here as the voice of Green Ronin but I find myself with a few things to offer today, if just for a little clarification. Green Ronin was formed in early 2000 and our first product Ork! the Roleplaying Game was released in June of that year. We shortly thereafter...

I needed this laugh break, thanks. :lol: Oh, and to answer that question, you should know I'm a total tightwad when it comes to paper clips. One box of 100 per year, no more! ;)

Lizard, please allow me to explain why I do not see these two things as equivalent. WotC produced the material which THEY released THEMSELVES. Releasing the information in their SRD was their choice. One might even say it was an integral part of their business plan! Green Ronin used WotC's...

That's right. The OGL that exists now exists "in perpetuity". The D20 system trademark license can be ceased, which would require publishers to stop selling their D20-branded materials. What WotC could do is put out the 4E OGL as a version that is not an extension of the current OGL, but a...

When asked about this specifically during the conference call (not even by us!) the response was, "Not at this time." They did make clear that the do not intend for the new license to be able to spawn a new generation of M&M-esque stand alone games as the old license allowed for. Seeing the...

Whoa, there, big fella. Let's not get carried away. We are not getting any sneak peeks at the rules, we're not negotiating any special agreements. Nothing of the sort. Green Ronin is not eager to jump into making ANY decisions about 4E until we see the LICENSE. We've signed the NDA that is...

Hey now! GR did no such thing and I'd really appreciate it if no one starts running around saying we did! Green Ronin has been a longtime supporter of RPGnow. We sold our PDFs there, exclusively, before we ever had our own PDF delivery on our website and we remained there exclusively even when...

Episode 4: Holiday Top Three In this light-hearted episode the game night crew assembles at Green Ronin headquarters and discusses the top three games in a variety of categories. OK, so it's usually more like the top 5 or 7, but who's counting? Guests include Jess Lebow, Nicole Lindroos, Evan...

I can tell you're delighting in your schadenfreude but the two things are really unrelated. Wanting to sell off the last couple hundred books in a print run before a new edition makes them completely obsolete is unconnected in any way from whether or not those books received reviews. In fact...

WotC needs to figure out what their 4e plan is and let 3rd party publishers see the rules before publishers can make too many plans... I'm sure we'll have a better idea soon.

The d20 Freeport Companion will be our last 3.5 book. Unfortunately, the Arcane Quarter book was long-delayed and had been re-scheduled for print multiple times and the 4e announcement was kind of the nail in the coffin for print options now.

Pogre is correct, this is a sale to the game trade. Alliance has announced it to their retail customers but we are offering these same sale prices to all of our distribution accounts. Your FLGS need not deal with Alliance to get these deals; if your FLGS carries our products this deal is...

After more than twelve hours with no replies, I guess that's a pretty resounding "no". :(

In this episode Chris Pramas sits down with Paizo publisher Erik Mona. They discuss the announcement of 4th edition D&D and what that means for the Open Game License and d20 publishers. Erik talks about Paizo's new ventures, including Pathfinder and the Gamemastery modules, and this leads into a...

Talk Like a Pirate Day Yar! Today be Talk Like a Pirate Day, so Captain Chris, the Freeport Pirate himself, sez ye get some booty. Fer today only, ye can grab the PDF version o' the Freeport Trilogy Five Year Anniversary Edition. Fer free! So hurry up 'n' click like a pirate, ya landlubber...

We noticed that too but unfortunately not in time to fix it before Chris had to leave for England. It was either go with it that way for the first 'cast or wait until after GenCon, as Chris is on the road pretty much constantly from now until the 20th. Not much good having a podcast about our...

Green Ronin Publishing and our president and show host Chris Pramas are proud to present Episode 1 of our new Green Ronin Publishing Podcast. Follow along with Chris and special guests Steve Kenson and Robert "Dr. Evil" Schwalb as they discuss the many cool products that we'll be debuting at...

I must object to this bit. Can you please point me to the announcement you're thinking of? Back in January of 2006 Pramas made one mention of Blue Rose "coming to an end" in the context of the third book in the series coming out. We meant that in the same way that one might say, "The Harry...
